NETTING BETWEEN sCHwAB AND his WIFE.
CmcAGO. November l0.-When the
news OF the commutatIOn OF the sentence
of Fiellen and Schwab was received at
the iaii there was an extraordinary scene
of activity. The news was sent to rcle-
tiyes of the condemned men, and IN
short time they began to arrive at the
Jail. First OF the women to come was
Mrs. Schwab. Soon after Schwab was
brought from his cell To the main Office.
His wife quickly advanced to INN and
throwing her arms about his neck burst
into tears. Schwab returned the en-
brace in calm manner, and soon the
two were chatting quietly together
After this Spies and Fischer were
brought from their cells and taken to
the iail library. Engel was brought to
the private Office Of Mr.. Folz. This was
done for the purpose of allowing the
relatives to take their last interviews.

DAUGHTER.
The first one Of the women to arrive
after Mrs. Schwab was Miss Engel,
daughter of the condensed Anarchist.
When the two met in the private Office
there was IN outburst of grief which II
Is impossible to describe. The father
and daughter chung to each other and
sobbed convulsiyely. Their conversation
was in German and was listened to only
by Deputy Olezon.

Then came Mrs. Spies, mother of Au-
gust. She had been waiting outside foI
an hour and half. Her sobs could be
heard through the corridors of the build
ing. She did not stay long IN the libra
nv with her son, and on her exit from
the iail Mrs. Fischer was admitted. She
went into the library, and her lamenta
tons were heard above the tramp OF the
deputies who sWarmed about the place.
THE GROWING SCENE OF ALL.
But the GROWING scene Of all was the
visit of Nina Van Zandt, the proxy wifi,
of Spies. She was conducted to tn,
| library by Deputy Olezon. As she walk
ed through the main office she betrayed
no emotion. The moment she saw Au
gust, however, her demeanor completely
changed. There was look, then a gasp
and in a trice the lovers were in eacl
d. others arms. A number of curious re
porters and officers crowded up to tn,
door of the library, but it was quick!
shut by deputy. The interview be
tween the prisoner and his faithful dc
voice lasted nearly half an hour.
